I have a Dell Optiplex 3010.

I want to install Built-Out VGA from NVIDIA geforce family .

The motherboard is the Dell Inc. 042P49

(CPU 1) and currently has a Intel Core i5 2400 Socket 1155 LGA installed.

Motherboard Slots => 3xPCI Express x1, 1xPCI Express x16

PCI Express Version Supported =>   v2.0

P.S.U =>  Dell H265Am--00  Max Output Power 265w


I need the advice to choose the proper graphics card compatible with my device


Thanks

You already have onboard VGA (and HDMI) video output on the 3010, so is there a reason you want VGA from an add-in (NVidia)  video card?

You'd need a PCI-e x16 video card, regardless of which exact card you pick.

PCI-e 2.0

Power supply depends on form factor:
Desktop:        250 W
Mini-Tower:   265 W
Small Form:  240 W

PCI-e X16 slot also depends on form factor:
Mini-Tower:     one full-height card
Desktop:          one low-profile card
Small Form:     one low-profile card
